I was soooo confused until YOUR video!!! Thank you so much! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻💗😅

Best magic loop instruction I have ever seen! I finally get it. Thank you so much.

Thank you! Thank you! I am in a lace knitting class and just couldn't get the hang of the pi shawl cast-on. Your video was so clear and your magic loop hints were invaluable...I was able to knit the swatch for class. Don't tell the instructor--she's also a friend!!😃😃

I need to learn how to start row one then two up to 8 rows

I've been knitting for a while but was afraid of trying magic loop because everyone makes is seem difficult. Your explanation is very straightforward and easy to get. Thank you!

THANK YOU! My son asked for a knit teddy bear for his birthday and it starts with this cast on, but I’ve never done it! You explained it perfectly! ❤❤❤

Great information, thank you

Great tutorial, I too have been enjoying your book.

I want to say thankyou so much for this video. The way you presented it was so clear and simple. I have been working on this Idea for a long time but always goofed it up . Now I am knitting along like I know what I am doing. Thanks for REALLY making my day.

Thank you! Much easier this way than with a crochet hook

Thank you so much for a wonderful tutorial. I think I only had to undo my start about 20 times - which is a very low number for me. I will definitely return for other tutorials about other stitches !

Very nice.. I’m just learning how to use my circular needles. Thanks for the lesson. I will be watching more 😊

Whaaaaaaaat??!!! #wizardry

Best explanation I have found! Thank you!

I just saw the Stephen West video of weaving in ends - "weavin' Stephen" on KZfaq. He only crosses the yarn on top. Does this make a difference?

Thank you for this video!!

This is the best of several explanations of how to do a circular cast on that I've watched. Thank you.

How can I ever thankyou!! Ive been hoping to find a new way to purl. My regular purling in continental was always to loose. And no matter what I did it never got better. This is so much easier and makes a huge diffrence.

If I could click like a hundred times on your video, I would. THANK YOU!!! You've answered my questions after a day of frustration. I have always heard the needles referred to as top/bottom or front/back when working magic loop. When you said to just look where your yarn is coming from and use that needle, ***LIGHT BULB***, it made complete sense. :) Clear instructions, pleasant voice. :D Thank you!!!

That's the way my Grandmother taught me :)

Great job, Myra. THANK YOU.😻

knitters from Austria and Germany learn to perl this way , and no, they don't have more movement actually even a little less motion

Where'd y go Myra wood

Great video!

I'm trying to find a demo of someone doing it without holding your finger in the air. I can do this but too much stress on the hand, for me. Anyone?

You are officially my hero. THANK YOU!!!

Thank You so much.

Very clear explanation, much easier to understand the rhythm than many other videos.

I finally think I understand the rhythm of magic loop. Yours was the clearest explanation and demonstration of the technique that I've seen.

Try portuguese style! It's even. more ergonomic and fast!

A very clean way to pick-up the wrapped stitches from the right side.

Thank you...every continental knitter should see this video!

Wow! Thanks!

I forget where I learned this, but using this technique, I can purl faster than I can knit!! It takes a bit of practice, but the speed you pick up is worth it. Thank you for demonstrating it and helping out Continental purl's bad rep. ;-)

I am doing your stitch but find that when I turn the work to the knit side, your knit stitches are backwards

Bought your amazing book "Knit in new directions" and was wondering, where have you been all my knitting life? Wanted to thank you for all the tips and tricks you share with the readers/knitters. And now after I found your videos on youtube a special thank for them all and especially for the advice to use a marker when wrap and turn, it makes the whole thing so much easier. I wish you all the best and success in your knitting world:)

Thank you! This is soooo clear!

Ps-also love this technique. Anything to avoid weaving in tails at the end ;-)

Love that yarn! Reminds me of Monsters Inc :-)

Excellent video - now all becomes clear! Many thanks.

Why don't you make norwegian purl? In norwegian way yarn is always behind your work.

I found your video again. I've switched to bamboo needles as they work better for my hands as the wood has a bit of "give" to it. I use this purl and it is fewer times that I have the occasional stitch that didn't want to stay where I wanted it and the tension is great. I agree with Ken Bates, would have been good to learn this from the getgo but then you'd really not appreciate it like I do now. Wonderful.

Thank you! I have been knitting for just over a year, and never has a purl stitch felt right to me. I watched this a couple times, and it was just like turning on a light switch. This is so much easier. I'm off! Purling away on a blanket for my family room, and you just made the whole project so much more enjoyable. This is so comfortable for lefties to do. Feels like how I should have been purling all along. Thanks again.

Thank YOU!!! This method made my purl stitch more tighter and without making the stitches twisted.

Thank you very much - this really helped me. I like to knit continental style but was having a heck of a time finding a way to purl continental style in any way that was comfortable.

I agree, it is a lot more efficient. I hold my yarn in my left hand differently, more Eastern European. So my yarn I pull it from across my index finger and the speed and tension holds the yarn on the needle. It is the same hand movement of how I use my crochet hook. It is similar to the Norwegian purl, except that I am leaving the yarn in front and it make a stitch of equal tension to my knit stitches. Thank you for your wonderful video.
